Theme Parks, Summer and HubMob - Oh My!

If We're Talkin' Theme Parks, It Must Be Summer!

Summer is absolutely my favourite time of year! No more dreary days and trudging around in cumbersome winterwear. Summer means sunbathing, barbeques, the beach and....theme parks!

When my children were small, we always took them on one or two trips to a theme park each year. We would go to one in the States (usually Cedar Point) and one here in Canada (Wonderland). It was a great time for all of us and my kids still remember going.

Since HubPages has members from around the world, it will be interesting to read accounts of the various amusement theme parks from locales that are foreign to us. Regardless of the location, I'm sure it's going to be a fun ride. Can you say, "Wheeee!"

So, please secure your safety bar and keep your arms in except when cresting the roller coaster. Enjoy these hubs and don't forget to leave feedback! The hubbers don't charge admission, so think of it as a donation. :)
